SIXTEEN CANTONMENTS
AND FIFTEEN TENT CITIES
BUILT IN NINETY DAYS
No Feat of Construction Has Ever Approached Prepara
tions For Concentrating American Armies in the War
Washington, May 15.—Even in
America, "the greatest builder of
the past," no ieat of construction
has ever approached that involved
in .the completion in 90 days of 16
cantonments for the national army
and 16 tent cities for the National
Guard, says the official war "mater
ial" history made public to-day by
the War Department. The task in
volved the erection and equipment
of 31" cities capable of accommodat
ing 40,000 persons each, with all the
requisite witter, lighting, sewerage,
hospital and heating utilities, and in
addition the preparation of the
strictly military features, such as

The creature comforts enjoyed by
1 the American soldier of 1917 is con-
I trasted with those afforded the man
i of '6l-'65. Substantial barracks,
• heated by steam or stoves, took the
II place of tents; chemically pure
. i water replaced that secured from
• the casual spring or stream; scien
. tific laundries cared for the national
; army recruit's clothing, and field
. 1 bakeries gave him the modern suc
,; cessor to the ashy hoe-cakes.
( ) Lumber used in tpe cantonments
|' alone, the report says, was equiva
. i lent to a board walk 12 inches wide
s! and one inch thick "to the moon
, i and half way back." while the nails
I of one popular size would "girdle
| j the earth three and a half times."
The race between the contractors
; to complete the cantonments in the
| • time for the initial draft is eloquent
ly described, the builder of Camp
! Taylor, Louisville, Ky., winning by
a narrow margin. The cantonments
! occupied 167,741 acres of land,
j which cost an average of $3.93 per
: acre, and the contractors' profits are
(given as less than two and a half
| per cent of the gross cost of con
struction.
FRECKLES
Now Is the Time to Get Rid of These
Ugly Spots.
There's no longer the slighest
need of feeling ashamed of >*>ur
freckles, as Othine —double strength
—is guaranteed to remove these
| homely spots.
Simply get an ounce of Othine —
! double strength—from any druggist
| and apply a little of it night and
morning and you should soon see
that even the worst freckles have
1 begun to disappear, while the lighter
! ones have vanished entirely. It is
seldom that more than an ounce is
needed to completely clear the skin
i and gain a beautiful, -elear com.
| plexion.
Be sure to ask for the double
I strength Othine as this is sold under
' guarantee of money back if it fails
to remove freckles.
Expenditures for the cantonments
represented 7 per cent of the total
for the Panama Canal, but the time
consumed was less than 90 days
against 10 years for the canal.
Supplementary building projects un
dertaken by the Department aggre
gated a much larger project than
the cantonments and Included enor
mous storehouses, factories for var
ious purposes, proving grounds,
army posts, embarkation facilities,
docks, magazines, railroads, aviation
fields and hospitals.
Billion for Construction
"On November 11, 1918," the re
port says, "the construction division
was conducting 535 operations In
442 localities, involving an expendi
ture of $1,000,000,000. These touch
;ed every State but one."
As the construction crews devel
' oped team work, remarkable in
i stances of speed were reported. Pre
cautions taken to assist the contrac
| tors Included the detail of a disburs-
I ing officer on the spot, "with check
: book ready," so that material could
Ibe paid on delivery, and so that
; special equipment could be obtained
at a fair rental and a steady flow
jof building materials be insured,
j The last feature finally necessitated (
the sending of soldiers Into the for
est to cut logs and piles and to load
I them on railroad cars, which were
] guarded by soldiers to their destin
ation.
When a shortage of stoves threat
ened the hfsnlth of the new army,
officers of the construction were sent
ito the factories to speed up produc
tion, with the result that the army
"obtained' 15,000 in three months,
although that number is a year's
output of the industry."
Fire prevention at the various
army projects was so efficient that
the per capita loss was only 46
cents, compared with the civilian
rate of $2.42. ,

AMERICAN SOLDIER
GAINED AN AVERAGE
OF 12 POUNDS IN WAR
Soldiers Who Fought Against Spain in 1898 Lost Twenty
two Pounds, Report Says
Washington, May 16. "Soldiers
who fought against Spain in 1898
lost in weight on an average of 22
pounds each; the average American
soldier at the end of the fighting in
1918 weighed twelve pounds more
than he did when the selective ser
vice act or his own volition brought
him into the Army."
Thus the success won by the
Aryiy's subsistence branch in the
great war is epitomized in chapters
of the official war "material" history
made public to-day by the War De
partment.
The food problem of an Army of
3,700,000 Americans is visualised in
the history by considering the force
as a single man and the entire war
period as one dinner hour. Articles
comprised in the Army ration as
sumed these tremendous totals: 1
Army Rations
Roast beef 800,000,000 pounds;
bacon, 150,000,000 pounds; flour
(bread) 1,000,000,000 pounds; but
ter, 17,500,000; oleomargarine, 11,-
000,000; baked beans, 150,000.000
pounds; potatoes, 487,000,000
pounds, onions, 40,000,000 pounds;
corn, beans and peas, 150,000,000
cans; tomatoes, 190,000,000 cans;
prunes, peaches and apples (for des
sert), 107,000,000 cans; sugar, 350,-
000,000 pounds; coffee, 75.000,000
pounds; evaporated milk, 200,000,-
000 cans.
The bill for this "meal" amounted
to $727,000,000 to December 1, 1918,
the per capita cost having risen from
4 cents in 1897 to 48 in 1918.
At the time of the armistice,
American soldiers in France were
consuming 9,000,000 pounds of food
daily. Moving this stupendous quan
tity over the 3,000-mile line of com
munication was the principal ob
stacle to be overcome. This and
necessity for conserving cargo space
led directly in the later months to
the shipment of dehydrated vegeta
bles to the American Expeditionary
Force.
"The problems were solved only
by the assistance of the American
food industry." (he report says, and
while instances were found of food
specifications being violated, these
are declared to have been very few
and in most instances not inten
tional.
The emergency ration of the
American soldier, designed to be used
only in cases of extremity, was per
fected during the war to consist of
three cakes of beef, prepared with
a bread-compound of ground cook
td wheat, each cake weighing three
ounces; three one-ounce cakes of
chocolate, three-fourth ounces fine
salt and one dram black pepper.
For Invalid Soldiers
A special ration was designed for
the use of invalid soldiers, includ
ing potted chicken, dried eggs, pud
dings, etc.
Importance attached to the supply
of fresh coffee for the men is evi
denced by the decision to ship the
bean In the green form and have
it roasted near the front. This led

half a dozen of the attractive pos
ters in their headquarters.
What Yanks Tliink
The whole country is waking up
now to the significance of this drive,
for the soldiers are telling just
what they experienced.
"The first Salvation Army girl I
ever saw abroad was Just before
Metz," narrated two Harrisburg vet
erans of the famous Twenty-eighth
Regiment, Robert J. McCarthy,
Company K, One Hundred and
Twelfth Regiment, and William Mc-
Carthy, Company D, One Hundred
and Twelfth U. S. I. "It was only
a few days before the armistice and
we were in some jam; German shells
falling all around; we needed rein
forcements. It was death to show
your person anywhere, and there
one morning came three Salvation
Army girls who made coffee and
doughnuts until we had to abso
lutely carry them off to save their
lives. They Hud arrived at mid
night in that advanced position; had
a bit of a shack and seemed not
to know what fear is. They wore
raincoats and slickers and, say, the
funny thing is I used to think the
Salvation Army was a kind of a
joke. Now I would give every cent
1 have saved to help them get es
tablished. They deliver the goods."
These veterans and hundreds
more will figure in the campaign
which officially starts on Monday
next to raise $35,000 for Dauphin
county; the ultimate aim being to
build a substantial headquarters
here and thus eliminate the tam
bourine and all "begging."
J. William Bowman, treasurer of
the local executive committee, start
ed yesterday with a systematic
drive to reach all industries; the
number being 300. These enterpris
ing plants came across In grand
shape for the other drives, organiz
ing individually. A soldier who has
been in the thick of it will call at
each establishment for the receipts.
The businessmen of Harrisburg are,
therefore, asked to take immediate
steps to organize toward this end.

i to the invention of portable roast- ,
ers capable of handling several tons i
a day.
"Noting that tobacco has estab- j
lished its claim to a recognized place i
in the soldier's life," the report says j
probably 95 per cent, of the Amer- <
ican Expeditionary Force used the ;
weed in one form or another. !
Monthly shipments averaged 20,- !
000,000 cigars ana 425,000,000 clga
rets.
The soldier's sweet tooth was satis- I
fled by a monthly shipment of 300,- j
000 pounds of candy during the early !
part of the war, but this increased, !
in November, 1918, to 1,373,300 ;
pounds, and in the following month ;
the War Department made candy a j
part of the regulation issue, "l% :
pounds being issued to each man I
every month. A close companion in •
population' was chewing gum, more j
than 3,000,000 packages a month be- i
ing consumed.
Clothing Demands
More than half of the Fifth Lib- j
erty Loan would be required to pay
for the clothing and uniform equip- |
ment of the American Army. One I
chapter of the report gives a short I
history of the events which led the |
government finally to take over the I
domestic wool clip and to comman- j
deer the output of practically every I
factory.
Interesting statistics are given of :
economics effected by changes in i
design. For instance elimination of j
lacings and eyelets in trousers saved ;
J17.000.000 and redesigning of the ;
coat cut the cost of these garments t
$5,000,000. Expert cutting reduced i
i the consumption of cloth 23-100 of a '
yard and saved 2,300.000 yards on ;
the total order. Cotton textiles pro- •
duced for the Army would furnish a •
strip three feet wide and of suffl- j
cient length to wrap eighteen layers j
around the equator.
Innovations resulting from short- j
ages in material included the sub- i
stitution of American dyes for the j
German product and the use of
vegetable "ivory" in button mak
ing.
The activities of the quartermaster
corps (afterwards taken over large
ly by the Bureau of Purchases, Stor
age and Supply), included also the
furnishing of hats, shoes, boots, fuel,
oil, paints, tools .harness and har
ness equipment and even music.
Prominent cdmposers volunteered ,
for the work of selecting a "balanced J
ration" of jazz and more restrained
orchestrations for the Army bands.
To give the American aviator the j
surest fuel possible, the department
took over every drop of "257 degree
fighting naptha" and confined its use
to the service planes actually on the
front.
Conservation of shipping space re
sulted in the revolutionizing of pack
ing methods. Clothing was com
pressed into bales, shoes shipped in |
bags and trucks were dissembled
and crated. The New Tork Baling
Plant, according to the report, sav
ed the government $55,000,000 in
tonnage expenditures.
HOBBLED
D. B. reports having overheard this
bit of conversation on the street:
"Dearie, do you think it would be fun
if you had both your limbs inside
one trouser leg and you were trying
to walk?"
"Certainly not!"
"Well, please wait for me. I can't
keep up with you with this skirt on."—

Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo
If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brit
tle, and is very harmful. Mulsifled
cocoanut oil shampoo (which is pure
and entirely greaseless), is much
better than anything else you can
use for shampooing, as this can't I
possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abund
ance of rich, creamy lather, and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
oughly. The lather rinses out easily
and removes every particle of dust,
dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and
it leaves it fine and silky, bright,
fluffy and easy to manage.
Tou can get Mulsiiled cocoanut
oil shampoo at most any drug store.
It is very cheap, and a few ounces
is enough to last everyone in the
family for months.
To. Have Red Blood, Strength, Nerve Force,
You Must Purify Clogged Digestive System
You can be the man or woman
Nature Intended you to be It you will
just understand Nature and pull with
her instead of against her, says an
authority on- the building of bodily
strength and vital nerve force.
-What gives the athlete his
strength? Red blood. What drives
the business man and the worker,
too, up the steep hill of success?
Red blood. What makes the glowing
beauty of woman? Red blood. What
makes rosy-cheeked, bright-eyed chil
dren? Red blood.
Rich, pure blood is the driving
force of life. And what makes red
blood? Nothing, except the regular
assimilation of nourishing food. The
red blood of life depends on the di
gestive system.
If your food does not digest, but
instead, lies as waste in the digestive
tract; if your liver is torpid, your
kidneys sluggish, or your intestines
Inactive, the red blood supply loses
and body failure starts.
Science In I'laln Words
For this condition scientists have
a long name. They call it auto-in
toxication. But, in plain words,
your digestive system is clogged with
waste matter and your body is be
coming a poison factory. Auto-in
toxication Is self-poisoning.
Scientists can trace auto-intoxica
tion from its start, and the part the
blood plays in it. The chemical ac
tion of food in the intestines the
same as If you should toss a piece of
fresh, raw meat out into the hot sun
and let it rot.
Most of the digestive and assimila
tive process takes place in the Intes
tines. When, instead of active, reg
ular, healthy intestines, animal and
vegetable matter lodges there and
ferments, putrefactive germs are set
to work and almost at once gases and
i body toxins the poisons form.

j sels that take up nourishment for the

right on with their work, but instead }
of nourishment, they take up these
toxins and start them through the
system. In that way. auto-intoxica
tion begins.
Symptoms Tell Danger
Like a dammed mill stream, the
poison flow goes backward. The
stomach gets sour, acid, gassy and
bloats as the poisons are sent back
to it. Quickly, the stomach sends i
you the danger signals by causing
headaches, nausea, heartburn and
pains.
The digestive system works as one
machine, so the livpr, too, is soon af
fected, and it sends out its warnings
by making you bilious, dizzy and
giddy. A coated tongue and bad -
breath appear. The face often
flushes, the hands and feet get cold
or clammy, and spots or blurs flash
before the eyes.
You wake up with a dull achy feel
ing and no appetite. Often the skin
becomes sallo'v or ashy gray. You
get drowsy In the daytime, especially
after meals, and begin to lose weight
and strength. Many times there is
a shortness of breath, a strained,
gasping feeling and a sensation like
heart palpitation caused by the gases 1
pressing upward.
As the poison toxins multiply,
nervous disorders appear. There is
sleeplessness and a jumpy feeling.
You roll and toss about and can
not get comfortable for rest. Skin
eruptions may follow, and sharp
pains In limbs and back like rheuma
tism. Medical science knows there
is almost no end to the symptoms
auto-intoxication /tan create. These
include neurasthenia and melancholia,,
catarrh of the stomach and intestines,
acne (Pimples), dyspepsia, gastritis,
marasmus (wasting away), harden
ing of the arteries, kidney disorders,
chronic arthritis and even diabetes.
Begins With Constipation
And all this starts with what you
,may call constipation. Science calls 1
you a lifetime.
Scout—How can that be when Its
constipation "intestinal stasis,"
which is inactivity or sluggishness.
Pills, tablets, castor oil, mineral
waters and such strong drugs do not
aid it. These drugs may cut their
way through the waste matter and
overstrain the sluggish organs, but
they do not start the organs back
to normal, healthy action.
The hundreds of people here who
are chronic takers of laxatives or
cathartics are worse off than ever.
As time passes, the intestines may
become more and more sluggish, und
bigger and bigger doses of "physics"
will be needed for temporaryy relief.
An End to Misery
No more fermented food waste
clogging the intestines and spread
ing. poisons through the system. No
more pills or mineral waters to over
strain the vital organs. Instead,
regular, natural habits that keep the
system cleansed and vigorous with
real digestion of nourishing food and
rich red blood that means real nerve
vigor and bodily strength.
This is the purpose of Natonex,
the new system purifier, tonic and
builder that contains the most high
ly prized Nature prodpets known in
